New Wasteland 2 Details From Brian Fargo

Brian Fargo, the founder of inXile entertainment, updated the Kickstarter page for Wasteland 2 today, providing further insight into what exactly the team has in mind for the project, including the extent of Obsidian Entertainment's involvement. Don't worry, Fargo assures us, Wasteland 2 is still "his baby."

The team appears close to finalizing their design documents, and is looking for some last minute fan input before everything is set in stone. Much of what is described in the update sounds pretty cool, from the diversity of environments to the idea of party members that can go rogue and steal from the player's characters.

The update also addresses the grumblings regarding Obsidian's involvement, which has been seen by some as a big studio getting involved in a crowdfunded indie project. Fargo assures fans that Wasteland 2 is still "his baby," and Obsidian's involvement is mostly about having access to their "tools for asset integration" as well as the design talents of Chris Avellone.

There's still five days left until the Kickstarter for Wasteland 2 closes, so if you still want to get in on the ground floor of what's shaping up to be a very cool game, head on over there.
